nice merge toby... i think that looks incredibler.
i'm eyeing a number of different porsche chassis for a build.
prob gonna go with something that has no engine/drivetrain
to keep costs in check.

^thanks, hope you dont think that last pic is my M lol.
Which porsche chassis you looking at? I'd love a 997 Turbo or gt3, unfortunately those are the only porsches i'd consider owning.

oh... thought that was yours
i'm guessing you're a little bit away from that.
i've had my eye on a lot of salvage stuff... these things
get totaled super thin. light front hits, side hits, etc...
we'll see. i'm just not intrigued by the 370z

Im going for something more along this, slammed with aggressive wheels. And if you look closely, it has more than just wheels and drop





thanks, dont be ashamed Z is a great car. It's just been given a bad image due to cheapo owners. One suggestion is to save, don't half *** your car. Try to put the best stuff to the car. And remember, stock > cheap aftermarket

Awesome buy, funny cuz I'm looking for a arctic white m3 at the moment. But I plan on keeping both my z and the m as a clean daily. Looks good, yea and kenesis wheels are baller. You plan on doing any exterior mods?

i sold the kinesis wheels actually, i prefer to stay oem with the M3. As for exterior mods, no plans to change it. as of now I want to do...
1. Coilovers - Im leaning towards BC coilovers for this car. I can go real low without sacrificing ride comfort. I wont go too low either like i did with my Z, but i'd like have 0 wheel gap. I was going to go with KW V2, but for the ride height i want i'd be losing too much daily driveability. Plus i never track my car.
2. OEM tail lights - $600 so i need to save now lol
3. 15% window and 50% windshield tint - gives the car a more uniform look
4. Factory trunk lip - Mine doesnt have it, still debating if i even want it. Will make the rear look more aggressive
5. Polished rolled exhaust tips - Dont plan on going aftermarket mufflers, but i want to change out the dull, microscopic factory tips. Will compliment the blingy wheels/grill/gills.

hmm, the car looks very boring. For such an older car/bodystyle, i think something drastic would make it look meaner. Maybe some lightweight race wheels with good offsets and a bit lower.

agreed
One of my Z guys love BMW...I just don't get it! No styling cues that makes me want it...
Power/Performance not gonna argue there...shiet moves...just takes alot to get to the "sportscar" look that most think of i.e. two door/two seats...
I know OP is gonna come through with the style no doubt!

i think that boosted white M3 looks like a flawless streetcar. i can definitely see you pulling off that look even with the oem wheels and not the BBS. i spy a cage in that one as well.
